ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the qacE△1-sul1 genes in multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli and their significance.METHODS A total of 225 strains of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli were clinically isolated.The genes of qacE△1-sul1 were analyzed using polymerase chain reaction(PCR).RESULTS From them 120 strains of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli were found the qacE△1-sul1 genes.The positive rate of qacE△1-sul1 was 53.3%.CONCLUSIONS There are high percentages of qacE△1-sul1 genes in multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli.
